feynman

feynman is a skill for Claude Code from imMamdouhaboammar/get-fable. It costs 81 tokens per session (896 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of feynman, AGPL-3.0.

A plain-language test of a decision in which a fresh critic asks questions until the decision can be explained clearly. If the explanation fails, the missing understanding is named.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it immediately after choosing an option, especially when the decision will guide later work. It helps verify that the reasons can be explained to a skeptic.
Why use it?
It catches decisions that sound understood only because their wording was repeated fluently. The pressure to explain the choice exposes unsupported reasoning or gaps.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

feynman scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 25d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
